Abstract
The presentation of the individual societies, with the summary description above, is far from being able to surprise all the units that functioned in Craiova, during the interwar period. Either we talk about the Armenians, the Italians, the Poles, the Turks, the Germans, the Macedonians, the Czechoslovaks, the Russians, the Swiss, the Greeks, the Albanians, the Hungarians or the Austrians, etc., we have to admit that they have made an essential contribution to the economic growth of Oltenia, especially Craiova. Even if were traders, stonemasons, mosaics, architects, engineers, painters, sculptors, they have contributed, over time, their work, talent and skills to the development and modernization of Craiova.
